Week of Training / Fueling Log: July 14th-July 20th
Noted: A week with daily workouts and food-fasting, with diary of life notes.
SATURDAY
SATURDAY-Training: Active Day with Cardio Day of Hiking
Notes: An afternoon of hiking on flat and hilly terrain on the farmland of forests, crop fields, and meadows of wildflowers and wildlife. The autumn flowers that usually bloom in September are already blooming in July it is strange. It is like the vegetation planted by Mother Nature is early and the crops planted by humans are later such as the corn is smaller than it should be right now.

Notes: For some reason was feeling nostalgic for the past with my grandparents now gone, this meal was a reflection of that moment in my life. It was a sunrise type of meal but at sunset with eggs, bacon, toasted bread with jelly, butter, and drank milk. My grandparents who used to live in the farmhouse I live in now, which is over one hundred years old, ate that meal every morning with coffee. Then the muscle-building milkshake added strawberry jelly with Jersey cow milk and ice cream mix. And snacked on fresh berries while picking berries for others, and freezing for future.
